The Five Sfsters
There were five fair sisters, and each had an

aim
 Flora would fain be fashionable dame; Scholarly Snsan's selection was books;
 Coquettish Cora cared more for good looks; Anna ambitious, aspired after wealth;
 Sensible Sarah sought first for good health. So she took Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and grew healthy and blooming.
 Cora's beauty quickly faded; Susans eye
 sight failed from over-study; Flora became nervous and fretful in striving after fashion,
 and a sickly family kept Anna's husband
 poor. But sensible Sarah grew daily more
 healthy, charming and intelligent, and she married rich.
 The three R's brought Regret, Reproach
 and Ren1orse to great political party in
 1884. The three P's, when signifying Dr.
 Pierce's Purgative Pellets, bring Peace to the mind, Preservation and Perfection of health to the body.

The Lively Fair that Fairfield County
 AgrIculturistS are Holding.
 NoRwALK, September 22.-The big glass case, filled with the most luscious of peaches, grapes and pears. which stands in the exhi- bition building of the Fairfield County Agri- cultural society, has been the most attractive of all the exhibits at the forty seventh annual fair of the society that has been held here this week. The big hall is filled with articles of every kind and nature, from the bronze monument with the date of death inscribed on the sides that stares the visitors in the face as they enter the door to the bedquilt of many pieces sewed by hand with the smallest and neatest of stitches. It seems as though the farmers of the county had given their trees and vines more than the usual attention to secure the yield of such splendid speci- mems of horticulture as are shown this year.

 Hear the Close When New England
 Leads a Slight Decline.
 NEW YORK. Sept. B.
 The stock market to-day tame and uninter esting in comparison with the past few days and was also somewhat feverish and irregular. The money scare seems to have entirely disappeared and the banks having become little more accom- modating there is more confident feeling in the street. The fluctuations in the active stocks in but few cases exceeded per cent, though few of the specialties made material gains. Stocks opened ir regular but generally lower but the decline in no case exceeded 1S per cent. Under considerable pressue to sell the market very active and weak in the early dealings and declines ranging up to E per cent were established. A sharp upward move ment followed and under the lead of Lackawana advances of from 14 to 1A per cent were made. After that however, the market became dull, and though prices were well maintained, there was no special feature whatever to the dealings. frac- tional decline in which New England was most conspicuous occurred at about p. m but this was followed by utter stagnation and it was not until the last hour that anything like animation dis played when slight weakness developed and the close quiet though heavy at close to the open ing figures
